It is *just* possible to squeeze the two in if the modem is below and the ether plug above. IMHO, the stupid X-jack connector is at fault here. The only way to sensibly make such a thing work would be for it to swing out away from any likely colocated cards. And imagine trying to use two of them at once. Do you know if it's possible to obtain a cable to fit the plug on the Megahertz card? mike
